The Elements of Language and Grammar: A Practical Course for Use in Intermediate, Ungraded, and Grammar Schools: Based Upon Welsh's First Lessons in English - Couverture rigide
Présentation de l'éditeur
In the preparation of this book, which is based upon Welsh sF irst Lessons in English, the aim has been to make a text-book well adapted to use in all intermediate and lower grammar grades of city, town, and village schools, and for the ungraded country schools. It is pre-eminently a book to develop the thinking powers of the learner. The general plan of the work is to enable the pupil to gain a mastery of the language through its use. Facts are adduced and amply illustrated before principles are stated; ideas are developed before the terms are given. The child is made to perceive before he is asked to remember, and to reason before he is required to generalize. Starting with a thought as the unit of expression, the pupil is made familiar with the form and structure of the sentence, its subject, and its predicate; with oral and pictorial analysis; with the offices of the noun, the pronoun, the adjective, the verb, the adverb, the preposition, the conjunction, the interjection; with the subdivisions of the parts of speech; with the processes of inflection; with the laws of construction; with capitalization and punctuation ;and, finally, with the art of letter-writing and composition. One topic only is presented at a time.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
